How To Track Traces of the Comet in the Mountains in Fortnite

Fortnite's latest Story Quests delve into the mystery of a comet, tasking players with an investigation. While many challenges are straightforward, like dealing damage at various POIs, one presents a unique hurdle: tracking comet traces in the mountains. This guide provides a streamlined approach to completing this challenge efficiently.

The third stage of The Spirit Realm Quests requires locating comet traces within a mountainous region southwest of the map. While seven potential locations exist, only three interactions are needed for completion. Prioritize efficiency by targeting a cluster of traces to minimize travel time.

The optimal strategy involves heading to the mountain south of Warrior's Watch. This mountain boasts two easily accessible traces directly behind the POI, with a third located on a nearby peak. However, the popularity of these quests means other players will likely be vying for the same locations. Therefore, it’s advisable to land at Warrior's Watch initially, loot, and then proceed to the mountain once adequately prepared. The comet traces aren't going anywhere.

Locating the traces requires close proximity, as their white glow and magnifying glass icon only appear upon approach. Utilize your map to mark your target, preventing disorientation and unexpected encounters.
